School: Tagwi Intermediate School, going into Grade 8
IreLynn MacKillican is a lover of sports. She has played
indoor and outdoor soccer with the Glengarry Soccer League,
and volleyball, basketball, track and field, and soccer for

Tagwi. Her passion is indoor soccer.
“I like indoor soccer because of the faster play,” she says.

“It’s also played on smaller fields so that makes it easier to
score.”
Her favourite highlight of the season was beating the first

place team and her all-time favourite is during a 10-0 win
when all of her teammates had at least one goal.
Sports aren’t all about goals and wins to her though.
“Sports taught me to listen to my coaches and apply their advice during play,” she says. “It
teaches me to respect others and have good sportsmanship. The harder you work at playing
the sport the better player you will be. I have met many new friends playing sports over the
years. It’s easier to meet people when you are in sports. You communicate with each other
and work together.”
The soccer lover calls David Beckham her favourite athlete, but she looks at hockey as a sport
she wants to try one day.
“I would like to try playing hockey but would need to read up on the rules,” she says. “I love
the idea of the physical part of it.”
